Hi Richard,
Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but I think the anonymous password shows itself
as a captcha. The following quote from the antibot article would seem to
confirm this:
"The "anonymous" user is also available for humans who do not wish to
identify themselves. The difference is that "anonymous" requires a login
(using a password supplied via a CAPTCHA)"
The login page states:
"Visitors may enter anonymous as the user-ID with the 8-character
hexadecimal password shown below:"
Below that there are several lines of underscores and bars, I'm assuming
this is an ascii-based captcha or some other method of obscurity, since I
can't find any clear 8-digit hexadecimal sequence.
Cheers.
Damien.

Hi there,
Is there any chance an option can be added in Fossil whereby, when/where a
captcha is required, the task is to answer a question instead?
That could be done, in theory, but augmenting a few routines in the
captcha.c source file. Consider sending in patches.
But, I thought the design of Fossil had moved past the need for
captchas for robot control. See
http://localhost:591/fossil/doc/trunk/www/antibot.wiki for details. I
just now logged off and went surfing about on the canonical Fossil
repo and did not find any pages requesting a captcha. Do you have an
example that I have overlooked?
